Title: "Homeowner's Blues" w/Lurker
Post by: Blooby on June 04, 2020, 06:03:35 PM

I had the main riff forever. I always imagined some sort of Jimmie Vaughan thing, but it got sped up a bit, and we ended up with something not to be taken too seriously. John's delivery on the cockroach line in the outro still cracks me up.

Guinness and Glenmorangie single malt this evening.

It's pity that BluesFest is not in progress, anymore... This has so good groove and the freaky outro works fine! Well done, guys!

Brilliant! Huge fun, the lyrics were cracking me up, but underpinning it is a fab groovy blues track with some stunning guitar work. Loved the breakdown at the end. Loved it.

A fun blues! I like the homeowner's humor in the lyric. Yeah, I can hear the Jimmie Vaughn style in your approach to this. Some cool lead work Blooby.

Absolutely fantastic. Incredible chops & tone, and the (highly relatable!) lyric is superb. I'm very fond of a blues shuffle and this is a cracker.

"When are ya gonna fix that...?". Lol.

Hahahahaha!

Dig the guitaring, but what a vocal! Superb. And it goes with the Jimmie Vaughan thinking.

Excellent and thoroughly amusing blues.

It's a four piece session band isn't it?

You're scamming us aren't you.

I'm not listening to any more of your stuff, underwear or no.

Faark.

Quality... I love the carefree approach to this - albeit aided with Guinness and Whisky! But the relaxed approach is what makes it work so well. From John's vocal, to those lovely guitar runs and that great choice of guitar effects it's a great tune. It does feel obligatory to have a drink when listening which is exactly what I am doing. Cheers lads!!

Sounds like somebody needs to look into an apartment.  Let the landlord worry about it.  ;)

Love the lyrics.  Catchy music.

oh yes - that's what I'm talking about.....

You could almost change the title to "Hormonal Blues." Mrs Chapperz is at that age.  War is hell.
